Our price: Enquire for price

Contained within a stylish frame is an authorised reproduction of the famous Player’s Cigarettes set of 50 cards – ‘Cricketers 1934’ - depicting artist-drawn portraits of a selection of famous players from the 1930s. On the reverse of each card you’ll find detailed factual information and career history of that player. This information has been reproduced on a single sheet and affixed to the rear (so that you’re able to read about each player).

This set was originally released for the 1934 Ashes Tour of England.  This was the tour in which the Australians regained the Ashes after winning the Fifth Test by a record margin of 562 runs. Highlights of the series included Verity's 15/104 at Lord's, Bradman's 304 at Leeds and the 451 scored by Ponsford and Bradman for the second wicket at the Oval (out of a total of 701).

What makes this a truly unique collectable is that card number 38 in each set has been personally signed by Australia’s oldest living Test cricketer, Bill Brown.

Just 300 editions will ever be released.
